Need some help with my D16... valve cover bolt came off.. wtf?!!
ok, so there are 2 bolts in the back and 3 in the front of the valve cover, and the front right bolt came out some how, and oil shot out everywhere. So I got a new bolt from honda, but there is like a wedge so it will not fit through the hole in the valve cover, or the gromet. it almost seems like the bolts come already in the valve cover and I would need a new one. Any ideas of what to do? I can not drive it because it will squirt oil all over the place. grrrr.
thanks
thanks

The VC bolts slide right through the hole in the VC. Make sure you're sliding the grommet up to the top of the bolt so you can slip the bolt in hole.

the grommet will not go past the wedge in the bolt though. The wedge is in the middle of the bolt. Honda might have gotten me the wrong bolt and grommet. I will take a pic of the in a little while.
